This MIA Sphere has taken over $100 from me - i have rung optus & they have blocked them - i have rung them on 1300 724 406 and had to enter my mobile number then press #8 to talk to someone about my charges, she was very nice & probably has to deal with irrate peoply - anyway they are reimbursing me via paying $36 to my optus bill for "Top 10 Service MIA Sphere Live" and sending a cheque for "Winneroos MIA Sphere Live" $55.  They have also cancelled my subscription (which i didn't realise i signed for, very deceptive)..  So ring Optus to block and then ring 1300 724 406 for a refund.

Thank you I did

Just had the same thing happen with No Limits Games - I have no recollection of subscribing to this company. Turns out both Optus and NLG are subsidiaries of Singtel - go figure!

I've just switched to Vodafone.

I saw some charges on my bill which is I don't even allow subscription or I don't remember anything about MIA Sphere Live and Divital turbine.. how can an Optus allow this kind of Scam.

Hi  , I hope you havnt paid Optus.

This is a scam and I have proof that the subscription was given to the third party 3 seconds afer I activated my sim card with Optus

And I have not even got the Sim card in a phone so I cannot see sights to subscribe

Optus has credited me after I contacted TIO Ombudsman who were very helpful and quick.

I this weeks Melbourne SunNewspaper Telstra have decided not to accept third party billing  because of the trouble it has caused.

These companies are just using the Telcos for fraudulently.

good luck
